There are many deep dives on UPST. Below is the most comprehensive one I came across. I will not repeat what upstart does etc. I hope to add some incremental insight to the UPST discussion. UPST background: COVID casualty & mistimed IPO While most high growth stocks were COVID beneficiaries, UPST was not. UPST growth suffered due to COVID.
